On the 71, was the bowtie on the wheel cover gold or blue? I want to re-do mine and would appreciate advice. The hubs I have are not in great shape, but would like to get them as close as I can. Thanks for your help. TF

I don't want to lead you in the wrong direction, but I think that the 2 wheel drives had gold(ochre) colored bowties on the full wheel covers, and the 4 wheel drives had blue?????????

pickupman · 01-28-2003, 07:34 PM

Blue was on them until 73, then 73 and up were yellow.

barn9 · 01-28-2003, 07:42 PM

Here we go again, hehee! My '71 had the gold.

Hey Tree, myself I like a black bowtie with a white shirt!!!!!!! LOL!! Had to say it LOL!!!!!!!!!

treefrog · 01-28-2003, 08:34 PM

Hey Weasel, picture this.

Tim Christian with a black bowtie and white shirt. With his bib overalls, that could be one heck of a trade mark. You guys who know Tim may want to pass that along. TF

treefrog · 01-28-2003, 08:45 PM

A derby hat for Tim might be a nice touch too.

weasel29gm · 01-28-2003, 11:35 PM

Yea, put a black one on Tim and a Orange one on the Big O!!!!!!!
